I have movieclip controlled by a button. by rollover on the button the movieclip transition starts working and I want that on rollout the movieclip will disappear in smooth fade. (the movieclip and the button have an instance name).
View 2 RepliesI know this question has been asked a thousand times already, but I simply can't get it to work. I've looked at various other threads posts, but none of them seem to work. Here's what I'm trying to do: I have a button (Instance name: "go") and a MC (instance name: "fader"). Now, I want the MC to fade in on rollOut and fade out on rollOut. Currently, I have this code: In frame 1 of my movie: (taken from this thread)
[Code]...
I've written my first function the only problem...... it doesn't work properly. Here's my function:
Code:
function fade() {
i = 1;
while(i<10){
roll._alpha = roll._alpha - 10;
i++
if(i>=10){
gotoAndStop(1);
trace("boe");
}}}
The function is located at the second frame inside a mc called "FLASH" , even as the mc "roll". The mc "FLASH" has the next piece of code:
Code:
on(rollOver){
gotoAndPlay(2);
}on(rollOut){
this.fade();
}
So when you rollover it, you will go to frame 2 in mc "FLASH", where my function and the mc "roll" are. But when I roll out, mc "roll" won't fade out...
where on rollover of a button, the surrounding fade(alpha decrease) and on rollout, it returns to normal.
View 3 RepliesA friend of mine asked me to build a web site. Since I am a graphic illustrator and that I know a lot of After Effects, he tought that that would be easy for me building his site.Well, here I am, stuck with this flash problem (I am a nuke in actionScript). The guy wants an interactive map of the best country in the world, that is, Canada.When the users mouse hovers a province, a little rollover/rollout animation plays. Actually, it took me about three weeks to make it work, but it works.Now, this is wheretrying to figure out how to trigger a movieclip with a rollover/rollout button. When the users mouse hovers an important city (in this example, Ottawa, Ontario), on rollover, it should play the movieclip box_mc up to frame 40 and on rollout, play the rest of the movieclip
View 4 RepliesJust started using MX and learning ActionScript. How to make a button rollover/rollout target another movieclip using AS. (Before I was just putting an instance of my _mc on the OVER frame of the button. The problem is, whe I went to the AS menu, I couldn't find tellTarget anywhere. Later I found out its depreciated since v.5. What can I use in MX to substitute for this wonderful function???
View 5 RepliesI have a movieclip within the "over" section of my button, which contains both an roll over and a roll out animation. My problem is that I cant seem to get flash to play the rollOut animation.
I placed the following code in the button itself
on (rollOut) { this.start_mc.gotoAndPlay("mouseOut");}
I tried setting up a function to find when the user rolls off the button but it didn't work either.
have a flash (as3) file that has 40 some odd buttons and as you roll over each of them, a larger image appears in one of my 10 loaders on stage... straight forward enough. Now, on rollover of the buttons, i have the script fading in each of the large images, and on roll-off, they fade out. My issue being, that as I run my mouse across a row of the buttons, most of the time it works perfectly, but every now and then, an image (usually an almost gone image) remains I am assuming hitting another button has interrupted that tween fade but not sure how to remedy / avoid this.

I have 3 buttons going around in a circle, in the middle of this circle I want a specific image to fade in for each button when you roll across it then fade out when you move off the button. I also want the button itself to change colour slightly when you roll across it. I've not had much look so far without the use of actionscript, but even with using it I'm not getting very far, I also seem to have a problem where once I have an image appear on the rollover of abutton that the image becomes part of the button, ie instead of the image just appearin when you roll over the button it appears when you roll over where the image should be appearing.
View 1 RepliesI have built a little script for gradual alpha fading in and fading out on RollOver and RollOut.
on (rollOver) {
_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
_root.mvWhathandset._alpha += (100-this.mvWhathandset._alpha)/20; };
} on (rollOut) {
_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
_root.mvWhathandset._alpha += (0-this.mvWhathandset._alpha)/10;
};}
If you rollover and rollout a single instance it works perfectly. When I place two instances side by side (alterning the instance name for each script obviously) and move the mouse over each of them the script falls to pieces, with one instance stopping the other and generally screwing things up!
What have I done wrong here? I need a movieClip to fade out, pause, then a new movieClip to fade in.
[Code]....
What I've tried to do is to set the target_MC alpha to 0 and fade out the current mc. Then when the fadeOut has completed to setTimeOut. After this the mcs will swapDepths and the target_MC should fade up to alpha = 0I've attached the flash and xml files. The images were too large.
I am trying to figure out how to make a bottom bar similar to the one seen ontions inside the bar- here's what I've got so far:as you can see I have a date/time MC inside the bar_mc which is working fine but whenever I try to have a new rollover/rollout movieclip (or button) inside the bar_mc it won't work/won't show rollover animation.
View 1 RepliesMovieclip I want to fade out: "StartupText_mc" Within "StartupText_mc" I have a frame labels "normal" on the first frame and "over" on the last. On the actions layer I have "stop();" on the first and last frame. On the third layer I have a simple alpa tween from 100% to 0%.
Now, Back to the main scene where the button "ProductMarketingIcon2_mc" and "StartupText_mc" exist next to each other. Here is the code I have for the button:

I was able to take an existing Flash file created in '06 and make a simple slideshow. See it at: [URL]. Now I've been asked to add buttons and make the slides fade instead of slide into each other. They want it like this: [URL]. So I created a very simple mock up: [URL]. I just can't get the buttons to work like the prosolassociates one above. I have attached the FLA here for review.

I am working on creating an interactive map. When a button is clicked a circle graphic fades in. When the same button is clicked I want the graphic to fade out the same way. I can only figure out how to make the graphic instantly disappear instead of fading out. I am following a tutorial and changing it to my needs. The tutorial can be seen here: [URL] The steps for the animation start at step 8. Here is the code I am using:

I am using Flash CS3 and Action Script 2.0. I would also like to have the circle graphic have a small photo pop up by it when the mouse hovers over it. What do I need to look into to make something like this happen? I haven't been able to find anything similar to doing this.
I wanted to make play button. Kind of this huge one in the middle of the screen as users used to see on YouTube.Here is the code for it which seems to work:

SWF_flv2.play();

I simply have one FLVPlayback component in the background and a movieclip on the layer above with an FLVPlayback component inside it. The first FLV component is constantly looping a five-second video. So all I need is for the movieclip containing the second FLV component to load the right file, fade in, and when the video ends, fade out. Absolutely all of that works... apart from the fading in. What I noticed was that my movieclip was fading in correctly, but the FLVPlayback component was empty and transparent until the fade had finished - then it played the clip. Here's my code, which gets called at random intervals:

I have 5 buttons that need to, when clicked fade the image in the background out and fade a new picture in. each of these buttons has a specific image related to it. how can i achive this smooth transition in and out for all of the buttons?
View 1 RepliesI have 2 buttons on the stage whose each MouseEvent load a different external swf when clicked. In an attempt to get the current swf to fade out and new swf to fade in on button click, I vainly added a Tween to the function but to no avail.
As it is now, when the movie starts, the button 1 swf fades in, however, when button 2 is clicked, the new swf is loaded but the old swf does not fade.
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var image:Loader = new Loader();

Does anyone know how to do this rollOver effect? [URL] Enter flash site and look at the rollOver buttons. I have the bar moving over each button but can't get it to fade out.
View 10 RepliesSo my flash skills are pretty rusty. The project I'm currently working on is updating my portfolio site and I have a navigation bar that I want to fade in, click on a link, fade out, then go to the specified link. I've got the animation working the way I like, however I cant get the links to work correctly. I've used the standard getURL commands, but then every button goes to the same link, not different ones.
What Action Script 3.0 coding do I need to make the animation play the way I've described and have each button go to it's own link?
I have 2 images that need to fade in and fade out so after 5 seconds image1 slowly begins to fade out while image2 slowly begins to fade in. My first image does not fade in because on the start of the flash movie I want to directly see the first image. But when image2 is done (so the whole movie is almost done) and it's start fading out.... I get to see the background (just a black empty background) while I actually want to begin fading in image1 (so looping the 2 image constantly).
So how can I immediately see an image on the start of the movie and still getting a fading in effect of the first image when the movie is almost on its end (so during the fading out of the last image)?
Take a look at the following sites; and notice their menus. Both have a rollover and rollout on their buttons, and when the button is hit the button stays down until another button is pressed. In the scissor sisters site, the neon bar still fades out after another has been pressed.

I am trying to achieve this myself with my own site, which you can view in progess here:
My Site
I have mastered the button rollOver and rollOut effect, in which i gathered the code from a kirupa tutorial. My problem is, getting the neon bar to stay underneath teh last button that has been pressed.The main movie is located on the main timeline in frame 2, because frame 1 contains the pre loader.
The actions for frame 2 of the main timeline are:
Code:
stop();
movieLoader.loadMovie("news.swf");
total = movieLoader.getBytesTotal();
loads = movieLoader.getBytesLoaded();
[code]....
Now the buttons are not buttons, they are movieclips, which are located on the stage, and have instance names of b1 for news, b2 for biography etc etcInside the movieclip, the animation of the neon bar fading in takes 25 frames, and this has a stop action on the end.
This code is placed on the first frame:
Code:
stop();
news.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(rewind == true)
[code]....
So now my problem is to make sure that the last button clicked leaves the underline bar down until the next button is pressed.
I started working on a little page of mine, and I already ran into some trouble hehe. I'm kind of learning as I go along. Heres the script I'm having some trouble with:
ActionScript Code:
this.qmbacking.onRollOver = function() {
//tweens rolling in the menu

I would like to make a fade in and fade out movieclip. However I want it so after it fades out, it will not loop and start over. In essence fade in and fade out and thats it.

Ive been using flash for years (for animation) but ive only just started properly looking at actionscript.What Im doing is making a flash site, in which when you click a menu item the current page fades out, the new one fades in.Here is what I have:
Code:
var selectedPage = "home";
//attach home page
holder.attachMovie("home","selectedPage","1");[code]....
It works to the point of loading the home page, and then fading that out when i click a new item on the menu, but it doesnt seem to be loading a newpage in or fading back in.
Just starting to wrestle with flash again, and i am trying to make a very simple website. I have made a graphic that will appear as the intro / splash page, and i want this to fade in... then appear as normal. Then when you click, i want it to fade out and load the rest of the site (yet to be made!)I am having difficulty making the fade in / fade out actions does anyone know how to do this? as i have seen it on many websites.
View 15 RepliesI made an earlier post which has been answered and everything works perfectly, but now i need a hand getting my images to fade in and fade out via code. I have 12 different images on 1 layer (bad thing i know but i dont know how to fix this).
My images pop up when they go over the respective button.How can i get the image to fade from 0 opacity to 100 in about 1.5 - 2 seconds? and then fade out again upon moving the mouse off of the button?
I have had a look at alot of different tutorials but none have helped me with the code, they have all been with keyframes. i cant use keyframes due to everything being on the one layer. also i think the code will be a bit easier for me to understand.
I have a button which on ROLLOVER shows a MOVIECLIP on the stage and on ROLLOUT it should remove it from the stage.Check out this code which perfectly works as i want
[Code]...
but my problem is wen i go back to same button after a rollover, the movie clip doesnt show or code does not respond.
